Traveling through time as a peasant girl to turn things around
Chapter 503: Assassination while Picking Herbs
Chen Jun, Chai Shou, and Huan Huan ran ahead into the dense forest. Chen Jun, the oldest, looked around and said, "Get off your horse, lead the horse, watch your step, and keep an eye on your surroundings." Chen Jun soon spotted a patch of herbs. He stopped, tied his horse to a tree, and took out a small hoe to dig up the herbs: licorice and Panax notoginseng, a hemostatic herb. Chen Jun called out, "Come on, you two! There are a lot of herbs here. Help dig, and remember to dig up the roots." Chai Shou said, "I know, Master." Huan Huan nodded.
The three of them were carrying bamboo baskets, all of which were full. Huanhuan remembered a bag Guoguo had given her, so he took it out and put the herbs in it. Hehe, it could hold a lot of things, and it didn't seem like much. He put the bag in his backpack and started digging for herbs again.
Chen Jun looked around and saw other herbs, some good for diarrhea and fever. He continued digging. Suddenly, he heard a slight noise and someone said, "Attention!" The three of them were martial artists, so they understood immediately and quickly hid in the grass. Huan Huan took out his binoculars and put them on, chuckling softly, "There are three people right in front of us at eleven o'clock, and five more in the distance, and more in the distance. It looks like there are quite a few people." Chen Jun: "Everyone, get your weapons ready."
Chen Jun rummaged through his bag and found a telescope, so he put it on himself.
Humph, watching the man in black approaching, he was still looking around, "Where are the people! Why can't I see them!" Chen Jun and the other two did not move and watched the situation change. The man in black came closer and said, "Someone has dug here. It seems that he is nearby and should not have gone far." Several people bent down and looked down to search. Seeing that he was about to be exposed, the three of them looked at each other and moved.
Three flashes of cold light passed by, and the three people in front fell down. The three people slowly changed places to hide.
The assassins behind saw their own men fall and launched attack darts to sweep the surroundings. Chen Jun and the other two had no choice but to fight back. Ye Heng's secret guards heard the noise and rushed over, and the two sides started fighting.
Chen Jun had been to the battlefield and fought many times, so he had experience and could easily deal with Huanhuan. However, Chai Shou had never fought in a war and had made few moves. He had no practical experience and was injured soon after. Chen Jun heard a cry of "Ah" and turned around to look. He was distracted for a moment and was almost injured himself. The secret guards came to help kill the enemy and saved Chai Shou. He tore off a piece of cloth to wrap the bleeding area and joined the fight again. Chen Jun: "There are many people coming. Who wants to kill us?" Chen Jun saw that they were assassins from their movements. They killed with every move. They shouted: "Leave one alive."
The secret guards were no pushovers, quickly killing off the assassins until there were only a few left. Seeing one trying to escape, Chen Jun threw a dart, knocking the assassin down, but not dead. Chen Jun tied up one and removed his jaw. The rest were killed, and several men gathered the assassins together. Haha, they must have put in quite a bit of effort. It seems...
Chen Jun unbuttoned the assassin's clothes and examined his physical features. His clothing and appearance made him look like an assassin trained by the Guan family. It seemed he was from the capital, not the most powerful assassin.
Chen Jun sighed. He couldn't go looking for herbs tonight. "Let's go back and take the living ones away. Leave the rest alone and feed them to the wild animals." The secret guard went back with the three of them.
Chen Jun: "It was worth the trip. I dug up quite a few herbs, and there are still many left. I'll come again next time."
Back at camp, as Chai Shou entered, Ye Heng could smell blood from afar. Seeing Chai Shou's clothes stained with blood, Chen Jun said as he entered the tent, "Get some warm water." Ye Heng went to find the spiritual spring water himself. Huang Bao appeared with a canteen and handed it to Chen Jun. Chen Jun used scissors to cut open the clothes. "Be a bit ninja." Chai Shou: "Yes." Guo Guo then emerged with an anesthetic needle and injected the wound. Chen Jun tended to the wound, and Chai Shou's pain subsided. He rinsed the wound several times with the spiritual spring water. Seeing the wound oozing bright red blood, Chen Jun applied hemostatics and bandaged it with gauze. Guo Guo took out a water cup and anti-inflammatory medication and fed it to her brother. "Take this and get some sleep, and the pain will go away." Chai Shou: "I'm not in pain now." Guo Guo said, "That's because I gave you anesthesia. It'll still hurt after the anesthetic wears off. Take the medicine." Chai Shou understood and said, "Yes." He drank a large bowl of spiritual spring water. Guo Guo sent him inside to sleep.
Chen Jun said, "Your Highness, from what I've seen, these are assassins trained by a big family in the capital. They look ordinary, but there are too many of them and they failed to protect Chai Shou." Ye Heng said, "It's not Master's fault. We will interrogate them alive tonight." The secret guard took the order and left.
Less than half an hour later, the secret guard came to talk, "Report to the prince, the assassin has confessed that it was the Minister of Personnel who sent people to assassinate him. He revealed a lot of information. One is revenge for his daughter, and the other is that he has a relationship with the Japanese pirates in the East China Sea." Ye Heng thought that it was time to get rid of these parasites, "Continue to interrogate and see if there is any evidence!" Secret guard: "Yes!" Turned around and went out to work.
Ye Heng thought, the traitor within the court has finally been exposed, having hidden himself well enough. He'd been secretly investigating for a long time, and it was time for a result. Thinking about this hunt, Ye Heng left his tent and went to his brother's tent to tell him about the matter. The emperor nodded and said, "I'll have the Imperial Guards keep an eye on it!" Ye Heng left.
Ye Heng brought out a number of electronic eyes and had the secret guards install more. They set up hunting enclosures and conducted strict surveillance to ensure the safety of the personnel!
At this time, the emperor was also arranging for someone to send a letter to the outskirts of Beijing to mobilize the army to protect everyone!
As soon as the next day broke, the hunting ground was bustling with activity: people were doing morning exercises, cooking, and children were running and jumping.
The Chai family had all finished breakfast in the space before emerging. They were neatly dressed and in high spirits. The Emperor had sent a guard to inform the prince that it was time to gather!
Ye Heng said to his family, "Please wait in the tent for a moment. I will arrange the seats." Then he turned and walked out of the tent.
Guoguo made tea and brought it to the table along with fruits, cakes and other food. The elderly people had no choice but to sit down and drink tea and talk.
Xuyao helped Wang Xiaomin outside the tent, where they stood, looking out at the distant scene! "This is a grand hunting scene from ancient times!" Lush green mountains and forests in the distance, lush green pastures nearby! In the morning, people were cooking, young men were boxing, and children were running and laughing. "Haha!" Xuyao watched. It was just like what they see on TV! It felt even more real here!
Chai En also came over and introduced the hunting grounds, including its area, the animals that lived there, the lush vegetation, and so on!
Mother and daughter had a better understanding of the hunting grounds. Xuyao said, "The air is great!" She closed her eyes and took a deep breath! Hahaha! Wang Xiaomin also laughed and said, "Indeed, it's comfortable to breathe! Pollution-free!" She stretched her arms and walked around in front of the tent. Xuyao supported her mother. Chai En followed behind to protect her.
